Anyone have this before? In my bag of cubes there is white fuzz on most of the cubes. Should I toss the bag? I only use them to germinate seeds. Any advice, experiences, input is much appreciated.

Might be mycellium. Any pics?Anyone have this before? In my bag of cubes there is white fuzz on most of the cubes. Should I toss the bag? I only use them to germinate seeds. Any advice, experiences, input is much appreciated.

I had a few seeds germinating in these riot cubes (with less fuzz). In the past i've had great success with riot cubes for germination and like them for the sturdiness they can provide for seedlings. I removed them from the cubes and placed them in soil just now.

Looks sketchy to me. I'd probably clean them by soaking in some H2O2 or something. Then let them dry. And then soak them in a healthy solution. Ring out and repackage or use them.

As said, it could be mycelium, which would be good. But it could be something else, my advice would be not to use them if there is any doubt in your mind.
The seeds I put on a few weeks ago cost me nearly £100, there is no way I would risk that investment over a few rooting cubes.

Agreed, it's sketchy. Thankfully I popped $50 pack seeds. Thank you @speedwell68 and @PadawanWarrior. I'll scrap these and buy a smaller pack of cubes next time and experiment planting in soil for now.

Those cubes are good for clones but you could cut out a expense by just germination in a cup of soil then transplant into a bigger pot

I germinate on paper towels and transplant into homemade plug planters filled with potting compost. As soon as I see roots appear at the bottom of plug I drop it in a bigger pot.
